John Hobbins at Ancient Hebrew Poetry has a post in which he discusses the issue of interpretation I raised in my post “Dust Eating Serpents.” I hope to respond to what he has to say about Isaiah. For now, I wanted to address another topic he mentioned.
John likes the fact that I hyperlink biblical references to an on-line version of the Bible. He asked for a how-to lesson for non-geeks, so here it is. And it couldn’t be simpler. I don’t do the hyperlinks myself. Instead, I use a plugin for WordPress called Scripturizer. I downloaded the plugin into the appropriate directory, activiated it, tweaked a few settings, and haven’t worried about it since. It automatically finds references to biblical passages in my posts and inserts the links.
It keeps me from having to worry about quoting verses sometimes, since readers who don’t know the passage can just follow the link.

That is very cool. Somehow I doubt typepad has something similar.
